Whales, Puffins, and Reykjavik
3 h
About this activity
This is an expert-led small group express tour on a fast and agile RIB boat that can cover much bigger areas than standard whale watching ships which greatly increases your chance of seeing whales, dolphins, and puffins. Sailing out from Reykjavik's Old Harbour the RIB boat cruises along the shoreline of the city, past the Sun Voyager sculpture and the glittering Harpa Concert Hall, providing unique views of the city and some excellent photo opportunities. The course is then set for Puffin colonies on the islands across the channel from Reykjavik and out to Faxaflói bay where you can expect to see minke whales, humpback whales, white-beaked dolphins and harbor porpoises. The bay is also home to a variety of seabirds such as Puffin, Gannet, Fulmar, Guillemot, Skua and Arctic Tern. Few experiences beat seeing whales and dolphins up close from RIB boats.
